what process is svchost.exe associated with
In my network, sometimes my user's laptops freeze during the logon script.
Well the computers don't actually freeze, they just don't move beyond the logon script. When I go into task mamager, cpu is running at 100% (2 gb ram and very new processors) and the process taking up the most memory (48,748k) is svchost.exe. I think it's associated with the windows search indexing but I'm not completely sure. On the Microsoft support site I saw that I could use the command tasklist /svc to see what is running in svchost. But I haven't figured out yet how to determine exactly what this svchost process is assoicated with so I can prevent it from running all the time. Any suggestions? Thanks, Jeremy

what process is svchost.exe associated with
its the windows service host - its the exe that runs services. if you right click on one of the svchost.exe and go to "go to service(s)" it will take you to the services that are munching up your memory  -- mrmcmint

Thanks, Jeremy Bring up Task Manager, select Processes tab, select View, Select Columns..., check box PID (Process ID). Now you can see PID next to the svchost and compare it with tasklist.
